Philips is a major player on the electronic consumer products market. And with their Sonicare toothbrush, they have created a fantastic series of electric toothbrushes.

The toothbrush is doing a better job removing plaque than a manual toothbrush. And it is still as gentle on your gums and sensitive teeth as a normal toothbrush; even though it has much more power.

Because not two mouths are the same, the Sonicare Elite electric toothbrush is constructed for individual oral care. It has a new Custom Care system with two different brush head sizes and two speed modes. So with a Sonicare Elite toothbrush you will always get an individual brushing.

The toothbrush uses a unique combination of high speed bristle motion and extra wide sweeping motion. This gives an effective yet gentle cleaning. The 31,000 bristle sweeps per minute removes the harmful plaque bacteria up to four millimeters beyond the bristle tips.

The Philips Sonicare Essence electric toothbrush removes 80 % of tea, coffee and tobacco stains. No manual toothbrush can do that. And with the 31,000 brush strokes per minute combined with the extra-wide sweeping motion gives a better cleaning than most other toothbrushes.

The toothbrush also periodontal pockets and reverses gingivitis, which improves your gum health.

A good choice for your child’s first electric toothbrush would be thePhilips Sonicare for Kids electric toothbrush. It uses the same technology as all the other Sonicare models, but the design is made especially for kids.

The power levels, brush heads and bristles are specially designed for small, sensitive kid mouths. It ensures effective but gentle brushing with kid-friendly power settings that are less powerful than the other Sonicare electric toothbrushes. Although it is gentle, it still removes up to 75 % more plaque in hard-to-reach areas than a manual toothbrush.

The recommended two-minute brushing time is increased progressively over 90 day by a build-in timer. With the help of a funny sound the kid is encouraged to brush both the back and the front of the lower and upper teeth.

The Philips Sonicare FlexCare electric toothbrush is probably the most advanced toothbrush that has ever been constructed. It combines three different cleaning modes (Sensitive, Clean and Massage) with two different routines (a three minute, systematic, full-mouth clean and fast one minute clean between normal brushings).

The Philips Sonicare Healthy White electric toothbrush features the new Clean & White program. It is a dedicated whitening mode that removes everyday stains. With only an extended 30 seconds of brushing, you will get a brighter smile in only two weeks.

The toothbrush also has a normal Clean mode and a Sensitive mode. It comes with two brush head sizes; a compact size for precise cleaning of difficult areas and a standard size for a full cleaning.

The battery-operated Philips Sonicare Xtreme is specially constructed to improve the brushing habits of teens and preteens. The toothbrush is effective, safe and comfortable; and the design is portable, powerful and stylish.

Many teens and preteens resist brushing their teeth, because uncomfortable and it takes too long to see a result. This toothbrush has been proven to encourage them to brush longer than with a normal toothbrush.

As someone who has had a history of cavities, root canals and periodontal disease, it has been very helpful in controlling my dental problems. However if you have a good family history of dental checkups it may not be a necessity. I am relieved that my checkups are much shorter since using the sonic tooth brush and I find that the build up of plaque is less. It will not replace flossing and I have found using the original dental tape by Glide helpful as it is thicker than some of the thinner floss on the market now.

The Sonicare Elite is a new kid on the block and it isn’t always easy to know the difference between the various models such as the 7300. 7500 and 7800 toothbrushes. The 7800 allows you to change the pre-programmed 2 minute brushing time to 2 1/2 minutes which may be useful for some. It also comes with a wall mount kit. In addition there is a dual speed control . The 7500 doesn’t have the timer change option and the 7300 does not have the above features but is a fine toothbrush.

Because I travel frequently I am pleased that the battery lasts longer than original model because I don’t like to travel with a charger. I find it will last around two weeks. I also like that there is a slimmer head and that the angled brush enables me to get comfortably to the back teeth. Most people neglect the molar areas but this is where many have problems with pockets due to inadequate cleaning techniques. It is also important to replace the head every six months and I find that after six months the cleanings are not as good if you do not.

My only criticism is that if you don’t unscrew and clean out the brush of the sonic tooth brush it will get dirty on the inside. In terms of bacteria I think that is important to do and it does not seem as watertight as it could be. However, this inconvenience far outweights the benefits as I’ve always dreaded my dental cleanings and if I can prevent future root canals or cavities it is a great financial savings.
